Don't Give Up

I've been reading this summer. It's one of my favorite things about summer - how much time there is to read, to really read. Right now I'm about halfway through a book called Too Scared to Cry, about how trauma affects children. One of the points that is repeated in almost every case is how "normal" the kids can seem to their parents, teachers, and peers after experiencing trauma, when in fact they are suffering. I've also been stricken by how common childhood trauma is - at least according to this author. One of my professors always says that everyone could benefit from therapy, and reading books like this leads me to agree. I'll let you know how the rest of the book goes.

I went to Wichita again this weekend. Jonathan ordered this Prius. He won't get it for a month or two due to the demand for these fuel-efficient automobiles. But we're both pretty stoked.

Time for sleep.
